THE UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA

The University System of Georgia includes all state-operated institutions of higher education in Georgia — 4 universities, 15 senior colleges, 15 junior col- leges. These 34 public institutions are located throughout the state.

A 15-member constitutional Board of Regents governs the University System, which has been in operation since 1932. Appointment of Board members — five from the state-at-large and one from each of the state's 10 Congressional Districts — are made by the Governor, subject to confirmation by the State Senate. The regular term of Board members is seven years.

The Chairperson, the Vice Chairperson, and other officers of the Board are elected by the members of the Board. The Chancellor, who is not a member of the Board, is the chief executive officer of the Board and the chief administrative officer of the University System.

The overall programs and services of the University System are offered through three major components: Instruction; Public Service/Continuing Edu- cation; Research.

INSTRUCTION consists of programs of study leading toward degrees, ranging from the associate (two-year) level to the doctoral level, and certificates.

Requirements for admission of students to instructional programs at each institution are determined, pursuant to policies to the Board of Regents, by the institution. The Board establishes minimum academic standards and leaves to each institution the prerogative to establish higher standards. Applications for admission should be addressed in all cases to the institutions.

A Core Curriculum, consisting of freshman and sophomore years of study for students whose educational goal is a degree beyond the associate level, is in effect at the universities, senior colleges, and junior colleges. This Curriculum requires 90 quarter-credit hours, including 60 in general education—humanities, mathematics and natural sciences, and social sciences— and 30 in the student's chosen major area of study. It facilitates the transfer of freshman and sophomore degree credits within the University System.

Instruction is conducted by all institutions. PUBLIC SERVICE/CONTINUING EDUCATION consists of non-degree ac- tivities, primarily, and special types of college-degree-credit courses.

The non-degree activities are of several types, including short courses, sem- inars, conferences, lectures, and consultative and advisory services, in a large number of areas of interest.

Non-degree public service/continuing education is conducted by all institu- tions.

Typical college-degree-credit public service/continuing education courses are those offered through extension center programs and teacher education consor- tiums. 11

RESEARCH encompasses investigations conducted primarily for discovery and application of knowledge. These investigations include clearly denned proj- ects in some cases, non-programmatic activities in other cases. They are con- ducted on campuses at many off-campus locations.

The research investigations cover a large number and a large variety of mat- ters related to the educational objectives of the institutions and to general so- cietal needs.

Most of the research is conducted through the universities; however, some of it is conducted through several of the senior colleges.

The policies of the Board of Regents for the government, management, and control of the University System and the administrative actions of the Chancellor provide autonomy of high degree for each institution. The executive head of each institution is the President, whose election is recommended by the Chancellor and approved by the Board. 12

HISTORY

By Act of the General Assembly on November 26, 1890, the State of Georgia "established in connection with the State University, and forming one of the departments thereof, a school for the education and training of Negro students." A commission was appointed to procure the necessary grounds and buildings, and to prescribe a course of study that would include those studies required by the Morrill Land-Grant Acts of 1862 and 1890.

The Commission on the School for Negro Students was designated as the Board of Trustees for the School, with perpetual succession subject to the general Board of trustees of the University of Georgia. The Chancellor of the University of Georgia was given general supervision of the school.

A preliminary session of the school was held between June 1 and August 1, 1891, at the Baxter Street School building in Athens, Georgia. Richard R. Wright, the first principal, and three other instructors comprised the faculty. In the following year the school was moved to its present site, which is approximately five miles southeast of the Courthouse of Savannah, Georgia, partly in Savannah and partly in Thunderbolt. The school was given the name "The Georgia State Industrial College for Colored Youths," and its faculty consisted of Major Wright as President, instructors in English, mathematics, and natural sciences, a su- perintendent of the mechanical department, and a foreman of the farm. The College awarded its first baccalaureate degree in 1898.

During the thirty years that Major Wright served as President of the College, enrollment increased from 8 to 585 and the curriculum was expanded to include a normal division in addition to four years of high school. Training in agriculture and the mechanical arts also was begun.

The first women students were admitted as boarders in 1921; the first summer session was conducted in 1922; and in 1925 the governing body of the College was changed from a Commission with "perpetual succession" to a Board of Trustees whose members were appointed for four year terms. All of these changes occurred during the presidency of C.G. Wiley, the first alumnus of the College to become president, who served from 1921 to 1926.

Under President Benjamin F. Hubert (1926-1947), the entire academic pro- gram was reorganized. The high school and normal departments were discon- tinued and the school became a four-year college. In 1931, when the University System was placed under a Board of Regents, the College began to offer addi- tional bachelor's degree programs with majors in English, the natural sciences, social sciences, and business administration, as well as in agriculture and home economics.

Until 1947, the college served as the State Land-Grant Institution for Negroes. In that year this function was assumed by Fort Valley State College.

During the administration of President James A. Colston (1947-1949), the faculty was strengthened, and improvements were made in the physical plant. Among the programs that were launched at this time were the Alumni Schol- arship Drive, Campus Chest, Annual Men's Day, Religious Emphasis Week, Freshmen Week, and the Cultural Artists Series. Expanded programs of stu- —

15

dents personnel services, public relations, a reading clinic, and an audio visual aids laboratory were instituted under the leadership of President Colston.

Dean W. K. Payne became acting president of the college on September 1, 1949. The Regents of the University System of Georgia changed the name of the College from Georgia State College to Savannah State College on January 18, 1950. Dr. Payne became the fifth President of the college in March 1950; he served in this capacity until his death on July 26, 1963.

At the beginning of Dr. Payne's administration, Savannah State College was granted membership in the American Council on Education. During the course of his administration the curriculum was expanded and improved and the in- stitution was admitted to membership in the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. In addition, the academic program of the College was organized under seven divisions — Business Administration, Education, Humanities, Nat- ural Sciences, Social Sciences, Technical Sciences, and Home Study.

Timothy C. Meyers served as acting president from the time of Dr. Payne's death until November 1, 1963. Meyers had served as dean of the faculty since September, 1953.

Under the leadership of Dr. Howard Jordan, Jr. (November 1, 1963 through January 31, 1971), significant, far-reaching and innovative programs were ini- tiated in all aspects of the College's development. Curricula improvements in the general education program in teacher education, and in business adminis- tration, as well as other areas, were carried forward. A graduate studies program in elementary education was initiated in the summer of 1968. The mantle of educational leadership at Savannah State College passed from Dr. Jordan to

Dr. Prince A. Jackson, Jr., on February 1, 1971.

Many of the improvements and innovations begun during President Jordan's administration came to fruition during the first year of Dr. Jackson's tenure. At the time of this appointment, the new President was chairman of the Division of Natural Sciences and director of the Institutional Self-Study which resulted in reaccreditation of the College by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools in December, 1971. During that same year the College was accredited by the National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE). The three engineering technology programs—civil, electronics, and mechanical were accredited by the Engineers' Council for Professional Developments in 1973. President Jackson, the second alumnus of the College to become its President provided vigorous and dynamic leadership geared to the task of increasing all of the College's resources and employing them to meet more effectively the rising aspirations of Black Americans and other disadvantaged persons for a richer and more rewarding life. Dr. Jackson served until March 27, 1978, when he was succeeded by Dr. Clyde W. Hall, who at the time of his appointment as acting president was chairman of the Division of Technical Sciences.

In September 1979, due to the desegregation plan mandated by the Depart- ment of Health, Education and Welfare, the faculty and students in the Division of Education at Savannah State College were transferred to Armstrong State College and Savannah State College received the faculty and students in the Division of Business from Armstrong State College in a historic program swap. This program swap resulted in the creation of a new School of Business at Savannah State College during the 1979-80 academic year. 16

Additionally, on April 13, 1980 the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia approved a new Administrative organization plan for Savannah State College for 1980-81. Under the plan Savannah State was reorganized into three schools — Business, Humanities and Social Sciences, and Sciences and Tech- nology. On September 15, 1980, Dr. Wendell G. Rayburn became the eighth president of Savannah State College. Dr. Rayburn served the college for eight years. Under his leadership on the undergraduate level academic programs in social work were initiated and received professional accreditation. At the grad- uate level, a master's degree in public administration was begun. Dr. Rayburn was also responsible for a resurgence by the faculty and staff of participation in public service efforts which benefit the Savannah community.

On February 1, 1988, Dr. Wiley S. Bolden became the acting president of Savannah State College. Dr. Bolden served as acting president until August 31, 1989.

On September 1, 1989, Dr. William E. Gardner, Jr. became the ninth president of Savannah State College.

Buildings and Grounds

The campus, comprising 165 acres, presents a unique setting of natural beauty. Among its 38 buildings are two that were constructed during the administration of Major Richard R. Wright: Hill Hall (1901), and Hammond Hall (1915), both of which have been extensively renovated in recent years. Hill Hall and Ham- mond Hall are currently unoccupied.

W.K. Payne Hall, a two-story air conditioned building, is a main classroom building. In addition to its fifteen classrooms, it also provides office space for thirty-two instructors (including four departmental offices), data processing fa- cilities, a secretarial center, a language laboratory, a reading clinic and the Learning Resource Center. Most of the classes in the English, Social Sciences, and Modern Languages are held in this facility.

Other classroom buildings, and the Departments that each houses are Herty Hall (1937)—Mathematics and Physics; Hubert Technical Sciences Center (1960)—Engineering Technology and Chemistry; Morgan Hall (1936) and Mor- gan Hall Annex; J. F. Kennedy Fine Arts Center (1967)—Fine Arts; the Griffith- Drew Center for the Natural Sciences (1971)—Biology; Wiley-Wilcox Gymna- sium Complex — Physical Education, the Marine Biology Building (1989); and,

the School of Business Buildingh (1989) .

Completing the physical facilities of the campus are those buildings used for activities that are auxiliary to the instructional process, those used as student residence halls and those used to house the maintenance and operational staffs. The Martin Luther King-Varnetta Frazier Student Center Complex (1969) houses the Student Counseling Offices, the College Dining Hall, the Post Office, and Bookstore.

Three new buildings were completed in 1976. A new library, destined to be the first circular-shaped library in the state, was occupied that year and serves as the hub for the other buildings located on the southern portion of the campus. Adjacent to the new library is the Helen Adele Whiting Hall. This building houses 17

the Developmental Studies Department. The third new building is the NROTC Armory located adjacent to the stadium. A portion of this building serves as an athletic field house. In 1982 the President's House and a Health Services Build- ing were completed.

Residence halls include — Smith-Bowen for women (1971) and Melvin Bostick Men's Residence Hall (1972). Both dormitories are air-conditioned, as is A. E. Peacock Hall (1967) and Lockette Hall (1965). Peacock Hall accommodates 180 men and Lockette Hall, 180 women. Lester Hall (1985), a dormitory for young women, completes the list of residence halls now used for housing accommo- dations. Camilla Hall (1938) has been converted to married student housing. Wright Hall (1951), a former dormitory, is being utilized to provide additional academic and administrative office space. The studio for FM radio station WHCJ is also in Wright Hall.

Most of the plant operations are directed from Medgar Evers Plant Operations Complex, a modern facility that houses the main offices for Plant Operations and the College Warehouse. Housekeeping services are now housed in the former field house. 18

PURPOSE AND GOALS OF THE COLLEGE MISSION STATEMENT:

Chartered by the State of Georgia in 1890 as a department of the State Uni- versity "for the education and training of Negro students," Savannah State College is a senior, residential unit of the University System of Georgia whose historic mission, while of continuing importance, has broadened to embrace individuals regardless of race, ethnicity, culture, or age. Central to this mission is a commitment to accessibility and excellence. Within guidelines established by the Board of Regents, the College encourages applications from all who are interested in pursuing higher education and admits students with varying levels of college preparedness. Through its devotion to teaching, the College endeavors to produce graduates who can effectively compete with their counterparts from other institutions for employment in business, industry, human services, com- munications, government, and the military; who succeed in post baccalaureate education, evidence broad intellect, uphold democratic principles and values, respect individual and cultural differences, and promote social justice.

Believing that a strong liberal arts foundation enhances career preparation and promotes lifelong learning, the College requires students to complete a core curriculum in the humanities, the sciences, and the social sciences in addition to the requirements of their chosen fields of study. In the context of a nurturing environment the College seeks to utilize the abundant possibilities for exper- iential and service learning, the challenging potential of recent technology, and the richness of world cultures to enhance students' learning, to respond to their differing cognitive styles, to help them meaningfully link past, present and future, and to prepare them for meeting the challenges of the global community.

The College purports to develop and implement curricular, co-curricular, re- search, and public service activities that collectively address problems, issues, resources, and opportunities of the coastal area, the state, the nation and the larger world. Additionally, as a historically Black institution, Savannah State College is a unique cultural resource for the coastal region and as such endeavors to interpret and transmit the Black legacy to all.

Currently the College pursues its mission through efforts to achieve the fol- lowing goals:

1. To prepare undergraduate students in the areas of business, the human- ities, the sciences, the social sciences, and technology for careers and/or advanced study;

2. To prepare graduate students for careers in business, public administra- tion, and social work;

3. To introduce students to the content, structure, and methods of inquiry in the broad fields of knowledge;

4. To strengthen students' basic skills in communications, quantitative thinking and independent study;

5. To cultivate in students habits of critical thinking and problem solving; 19

6. To increase students' social competence in multi-racial, multi-ethnic, and multi-cultural settings;

7. To deepen students' commitment to advocacy for human welfare and hu- man rights;

8. To offer learning opportunities for students with potential who might not ordinarily seek higher education.

9. To foster students' personal-social development in respect to physical fit- ness and wellness; personal effectiveness habits, human relations skills; and appreciation of the arts;

10. To implement a support system for students which includes financial aid, counseling, tutoring, job placement and follow-up;

11. To provide activities, programs, and services and to share personnel and physical facilities to help meet community and regional needs for educa- tion, recreation, entertainment, cultural events, technical assistance, and economic development;

12. To encourage faculty research and scholarly and creative efforts to help solve problems in surrounding communities and/or to contribute to the academic disciplines. 20

THE CORE CURRICULUM, SCHOOLS, DEGREES, AND PROGRAMS THE CORE CURRICULUM

All bachelor's degree programs and associate degree programs require that students complete a 90 quarter credit hour core of general education courses.

These courses form the foundation of degree programs and guarantee transfer of credit among all colleges and universities in the University System of Georgia. General education, broadly conceived, is that education which is needed by all citizens in a democratic society: the humanities; mathematics and the natural sciences; and the social sciences. General education is seen not only as the accumulation of factual knowledge in these areas, but also as a pursuit of learn- ing, attitudes, competencies, and values believed to give students a sense of meaning and direction in their lives.

The core requirements are as charted below, although specific courses may vary according to the degree sought. The courses should be completed before a student begins junior year courses.

Area I. Humanities: 20 hours required English 107-108-109 15 hours Humanities 232 5 hours

Area II. Mathematics and Science: 20 hours required Mathematics 10 hours Two-quarter sequence in one A Laboratory Science BIO, CHE, PHY, PHS, 10 hours

Area III. Social Sciences: 20 hours required World Civilization, United States History, Government, Psychology, and Sociology

Area IV. Courses Appropriate to the Major: 30 hours required Area IV courses are selected by the faculty of each department or school to provide the necessary foundation upon which the students will build their major courses as juniors and seniors.

Other General Requirements: 9-11 hours required A. The faculty requires the completion of one introductory course which assists students in making the transition to college and prepares them to be better, more effective students. 3-5 hours B.

Requirements for Regular Admission as a Freshman

The following minimum requirements must be met in order for a student to receive consideration as a freshman. It should be noted, however, that admission is a selective process and satisfying the minimums will not necessarily guarantee acceptance without additional testing. If a file is not completed in time for testing to be scheduled prior to registration, it may be necessary to delay the application to a future quarter.

1. An applicant must be a graduate of a regionally accredited high school with a diploma (or the General Equivalency Diploma — GED) as opposed to the certificate of attendance. An applicant who is not a high school graduate may be considered for admission based upon completion of the General Education Development Examination (GED) with a score that satisfies the minimum requirements of the State of Georgia, the total score must be 225 or higher. No score lower than 35 will be acceptable in any area, and the composite or average score must be 45 or more.

2. The following College Preparatory Curriculum (CPC) course of study is required of students graduating from high school in the Spring of 1988, or later, who plan to enroll in Savannah State College programs leading to the baccalaureate degree.

Course (Units)

English (4) — emphasis in grammar usage, litera- ture (American and World), and ad- vanced composition skills.

Science (3) — emphasis in physical science and two lab courses in biology, chemis- try, or physics.

Mathematics (3) — two courses in algebra and one in geometry.

Social Science (3) — emphasis in American History, eco- nomics and government.

Foreign Language (2) — two courses in one language em- phasizing speaking, listening, read- ing and writing.

3. The minimum regular admission requirements of Savannah State College are a combined Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) score of at least 750 (with a score of not less than 350 on the verbal section and 350 on the mathe- matics section, or an American College Testing Program (ACT) composite score of not less than 19 (with a score of not less than 18 on the English section and 16 on the mathematics section individually). 25

4. Prior to registration, applicants accepted into the Department of Devel- opmental Studies will be required to take the Collegiate Placement Ex- amination (CPE) for advisement and placement purposes. The Department of Developmental Studies will notify the student of test dates and times. The CPE helps to determine whether an individual possesses the necessary proficiency in English, reading and mathematics. Students are placed in the appropriate developmental course(s) in which they need assistance. Upon satisfactory completion of the requirements as defined by an academic adviser, a student may proceed in an undergraduate degree program. Note: Students whose performance on the CPE exempts them from the need for any developmental studies coursework will be re-accepted to the degree program for which they originally applied.

Provisional Admission

Students who do not meet the College Preparatory Curriculum will be con- sidered for provisional admission to the College. The following represents the Savannah State College's criteria for provisional admission.

1. English Students graduating with less than the four required units of English will be required to take the Collegiate Placement Ex- amination (CPE) in English and Reading. Based on the score on this test, the student would (1) exempt Developmental Studies English and Reading, or (2) be placed in Developmental Studies English and/or reading.

2. Mathematics Students graduating with less than three required units of mathematics will be required to take the Collegiate Placement Examination (CPE) in mathematics. Based on the score on this test, the student would (1) exempt Developmental Studies math- ematics, or (2) be placed in Developmental Studies mathematics at the appropriate level.

3. Science Students graduating with less than the three required units of science will be required to take an additional five hour course (for credit) in a laboratory science. Students will be advised to take a Physical Science (PHS 203) core course. Grade of "C" required.

4. Social Science Students graduating with less than three required units of social science will be required to complete one additional five quarter hour course (for credit). Students will be advised to take Geography (SOS 111). Grade of "C" required.

5. Foreign Language Students graduating with less than the two units of the same foreign language will be required to complete (for credit) one additional five quarter hours introduction to foreign language course. Students will be advised to take either French 141, Ger- man 151 or Spanish 161. Grade of "C" required. Note: Deficiencies in science, social science, or foreign language should be satisfied during the student's first quarter of enrollment.

Except as provided in the paragraphs below, College Preparatory Curriculum deficiencies for native students and those transferring 26

within the University System of Georgia must be completed before the student has earned 45 hours of college-level credit. Once these students have earned 45 hours of college-level credit and have not satisfied College Preparatory Curriculum deficiencies in science, social science, or foreign language, they will be limited to enrollment in deficiency courses and shall not take any other college-level courses.

Students transferring from outside the University System or from a program not requiring the College Preparatory Curriculum shall satisfy any deficiencies immediately upon entering the institution or degree program, or as soon as possible thereafter, but before the student earns 45 hours of college-level credit at the institution or in the new degree program.

Students may satisfy College Preparatory Curriculum deficiencies with transfer courses which are normally accepted for Core Curriculum transfer in Areas II and III and in which students have received a grade of "C" or better. Transfer courses used to satisfy College Preparatory Curriculum deficiencies will not count toward the completion of the Core Curriculum or other graduation requirements.

Exceptions to the CPC Requirement

1. Any applicant who graduated from high school prior to Spring of 1988 is exempt from CPC requirements.

2. An applicant applying for any certificate (non-degree) program offered by Savannah State College is exempt from the CPC requirements.

Conditional Admission

An applicant who qualifies for admission to the College but who does not qualilfy for regular admission will be granted conditional admission. A student is conditionally admitted to the College if the SAT score is less than 750 or any part of the SAT score (verbal or math) is less than 350. A student is conditionally admitted to the College if the ACT Composite score is less than 19 or ACT English is less than 18, or ACT Math is less than 16. An applicant who scores less than 250 verbal or 280 mathematics on the SAT (less than 13 on the ACT English or less than 14 on the ACT math) and has less than a 1.8 high school grade point average on all academic courses will be denied admission to the College.

All conditionally admitted students must take the Collegiate Placement Ex- amination (CPE) in order to qualify for regular admission. This examination should be taken before the student's first registration at the College.

Any student placed in a course numbered below 100, either by their SAT (or ACT) scores, or by the CPE scores, will be considered a conditionally admitted Developmental Studies student.

Any other courses taken prior to completing and passing appropriate parts of the CPE must be approved by the Developmental Studies Counselor or by an adivsor within that department. 27

A student in the Developmental Studies Program must have a schedule of classes approved by the Counselor in Developmental Studies, or an advisor within that department each time the student registers.

A conditionally admitted student will exit Developmental Studies in the fol- lowing ways:

1. Passing all required parts of the Collegiate Placement Examination.

2. If any required part of the CPE is not passed, the student will be required to enroll in the appropriate Developmental Studies course. Upon successful completion of all required Developmental Studies courses and passing the CPE, the student will exit Developmental Studies.

A student in Developmental Studies will be given four quarters per area to successfully exit that area. A student failing to exit an area after four attempts will be subject to Developmental Studies suspension. Copies of the policies of the Developmental Studies Program may be obtained from the Developmental Studies Department office.

ADMISSION OF OLDER STUDENTS

Students who have not attended high school or college within the five years previous to their application for admission and have earned fewer than twenty transferable quarter credit hours of college credit are not required to take the SAT or the ACT. These students, however, must take the University System of Georgia's Collegiate Placement Examination and complete any Developmental Studies Program requirements.

Programs leading to career degrees (Associate of Applied Science or Certificates and Non-degree Students)

For placement purposes, students admitted in this category must take the University System of Georgia's College Placement Examination (CPE) in read- ing, English, and in mathematics. For those students whose scores do not exceed the institution's minimum cutoff scores for Developmental Studies placement, the application of the Developmental Studies requirements depends on the stu- dents' program of study:

1. For those students who will take any course which has a Developmental Studies prerequisite in an area (or areas), all Developmental Studies re- quirements in that area (or areas) must be met.

2. For students who will take no courses with a Developmental studies pre- requisite in an area (or areas), the Developmental Studies requirements do not apply. The Director of Developmental Studies will determine whether remediation is needed for these students and shall provide such remediation through appropriate means.

Students who meet Savannah State College requirements for regular admis- sion are exempted from taking the College Placement Examination. Students who have earned an A.A.S. degree may, at the discretion of the Director of Admissions and the appropriate department head, be admitted to a program leading to the baccalaureate degree according to the criteria for admission of transfer students. 28

Students admitted in this category who have not completed the A.A.S. degree may transfer into programs that lead to a baccalaureate degree if they meet regular (or provisional) admission requirements or if they have earned at least twenty college credit hours with a 2.0 minimum grade point average. All College Preparatory Curriculum and Developmental Studies requirements apply to stu- dents in this category although available test scores and completed Develop- mental Studies work may be applied toward the fulfillment of these requirements. TRANSFER STUDENTS

General policies governing admission of transfer students and acceptance of credit toward advanced standing are as follows:

1. Transfer students completing high school in the Spring of 1988, or later, from Non-University System of Georgia institutions will be requested to submit their high school transcripts as part of their application process unless they have completed 45 hours of transfer credit in Core Curriculum (English, math, history, science, social sciences and humanities) courses. This requirement also applies to students enrolled in University System of Georgia institutions that do not require the College Preparatory Cur- riculum for admission.

2. Transfer students completing high school in the Spring of 1988, or later, transferring from University System of Georgia institutions will maintain their CPC status as determined by the first University System institution making the original CPC evaluation.

3. Transfer applicants completing high school prior to Spring of 1988 will follow the same procedure as freshman applicants except these applicants will not be required to meet the College Preparatory Curriculum require- ments. In addition, these applicants who have achieved sophomore stand- ing at the time of entrance, will not be required to submit their high school records. Such records may be required by the Office of Admissions, but normally the transcripts of previous college records will suffice in place of the high school record. Transfer applicants must ask the Registrar, of each college they have previously attended, to mail an official transcript of their records to the Office of Admissions at Savannah State College, regardless of the transferability of the credits.

4. Transfer applicants will not be considered for admission unless he/she is academically eligible to return to the college or university last attended, or unless the officials of the institution last attended recommended the applicant's admission.

5. Transfer applicants will be considered for admission to Savannah State College if all work attempted at other institutions, their academic per- formance as shown by their grade-point-average is equivalent to the min- imum standard required by Savannah State College students by comparable standing. (See Academic Probation and Suspension Section for appropriate GPA and required credit hours).

6. Credit will be given for transfer work in which students received a grade of "C" or above. Credit will also be given for transfer work in which the 29

students received grades of "D", with the limitation that no "D" grades will be accepted in ENGLISH, major and minor courses. College credit will not be allowed for such courses as remedial English or remedial math- ematics or courses basically of secondary school level.

7. Transfer applicants must pay a $10.00 non-refundable application fee.

8. The amount of credit that Savannah State College will allow for work done in other institutions within a given period of time may not exceed the normal amount of credit that could have been earned at Savannah State during that time.

10. A transfer student who has earned excessive credit in freshman and soph- omore courses may not be granted credit in excess of 101 quarter hours below the junior class level.

11. The College reserves the right to reject any or all credits from other in- stitutions notwithstanding their accredited status when it determines through investigation or otherwise that the quality of instruction at such institutions is for any reason deficient or unsatisfactory. The judgement of the College on this question shall be final.

12. The evaluation of transfer credit is given a student during the first quarter of enrollment. The College reserves the right to disallow transfer credit for courses if the student's subsequent grades in required courses in the same subject fall below average.

13. The Registrar's Office will provide a preliminary evaluation of Transfer Credit and the Major Departments will evaluate and provide final approval for all transfer credit in their Departments.

REGENTS STATEMENT OF DISRUPTIVE BEHAVIOR

The following statement is the policy of the Board of Regents regarding dis- ruptive behavior in any institution of the University System. The rights, re- sponsibilities and prohibitions described in this statement are incorporated as a part of these regulations.

The Board of Regents of the University system of Georgia reaffirms its policies to support fully freedom of expression by each member of the academic com- munity and to preserve and protect the rights and freedoms of its faculty mem- bers to engage in debate, decision, peaceful and nondisruptive protest and 35

dissent. The following statement relates specifically to the problem described below. It does not change or in any way infringe upon the Board's existing policies and practices in support of freedom of expression and action. Rather it is con- sidered necessary to combat the ultimate effect of irresponsible disruptive and obstructive actions by students and faculty which tend to destroy academic freedom and the institutional structures through which it operates.

In recent years a new and serious problem has appeared on many college campuses in the nation. Some students, faculty members, and others have on occasion engaged in demonstrations, sit-ins, and other activities that have clearly and deliberately interfered with the regular orderly operation of the institution concerned. Typically, these actions have been the physical occupation of a build- ing or campus area for a protracted period of time or the use of verbal or written obscenities involving indecent or disorderly conduct.

These actions have gone beyond all heretofore recognized bounds of meetings for discussions, persuasion, or even protest in that: (1) acquiescence to demands of the demonstrations is the condition for dispersal, and (2) the reasonable and written directions of institutional officials to disperse have been clearly ignored. Such activities thus have become clearly recognizable as an action of force, operating outside all established channels on the campus, including that of intellectual debate and persuasion which are at the heart of education.

The Board of Regents is deeply concerned by this new problem. Under the Constitution of the State of Georgia, under all applicable court rulings, and in keeping with the tradition of higher education in the United States, the Board is ultimately responsible for the orderly operation of the several institutions of the University System and the preservations of academic freedom in these in- stitutions. The Board cannot and will not divest itself of this responsibility.

Of equal or even greater importance, such actions of force as had been de- scribed above destroys the very essence of higher education. This essence is found in the unhampered freedom to study, investigate, write, speak, and debate on any aspect or issue of life. This freedom, which reaches its full flowering on college and university campuses, is an essential part of American democracy, comparable to the jury system or the electoral process.

For these reasons and in order to respond directly and specifically to this new problem the Board of Regents, stipulates that any student, faculty member, administrator, or employee, acting individually or in concert with others, who clearly obstructs or disrupts, or attempts to obstruct or disrupt any teaching, research, administrative, disciplinary or public service activity, or any other activity authorized to be discharged or held on any campus of the University System of Georgia is considered by the Board to have committed an act of gross irresponsibility and shall be subject to disciplinary procedures, possibly resulting in dismissal or termination of employment.

The Board reaffirms its belief that all segments of the academic community are under a strong obligation and have a mutual responsibility to protect the campus community from disorderly, disruptive, or obstructive actions which interfere with academic pursuits or teaching learning and other campus activ- ities. 36

CLASS STANDING, GRADES, AND COURSE LOADS

Classification of Students

Students are classified on the basis of earned academic quarter hours as follows: Freshman—fewer than 45 quarter hours Sophomore—45 through 89 quarter hours Junior—90 through 134 quarter hours Senior—135 or more quarter hours Graduate—student who has been formally admitted to graduate study

The classification under which a student registers at the beginning of any quarter will continue through the quarter. STUDENT LOAD

The normal academic work load is 15 hours per quarter for undergraduate students and 10 hours for graduate students. Undergraduate students carrying fewer than 12 hours per quarter and graduate students carrying fewer than 10 hours per quarter will not be certified as full-time students.

Under ordinary circumstances a student may enroll in courses up to but not in excess of nineteen (19) quarter hours. Exceptions may be made for students who are within two quarters of graduation, provided that total hours carried for credit do not exceed twenty-three (23). Credit for an overload will not be granted, however, unless it has been recommended by the students' advisor and approved by the Academic Vice President and the dean of the school. THE GRADING SYSTEM

The college uses letters to indicate quality of academic work. A is the highest grade; D is the lowest passing grade. Grade distinctions and quality points values are:

Grade Meaning Quality Point Value

A Excellent 4 per credit hour B Good 3 per credit hour C Average 2 per credit hour D Poor 1 per credit hour F Failure per credit hour WF Withdrew, failing per credit hour P Pass per credit hour IP In Progress V Audit K Credit per credit hour 37

The grade "F" indicates that the student has failed to meet the minimum requirements of the course.

All courses in the major, minor, professional education or freshman English in which the grade of D is earned must be repeated. The grade of D, like higher grades, can be raised only by repeating the course in which the D was earned.

The following grades also used, but are not included in the determination of the grade of the grade point average.

I (Incomplete) — This symbol indicates that a student was doing satisfactory work, but for non-academic reasons beyond his control, was unable to meet the requirements of the course. The student may remove the I by completing the remaining requirements within three quarters of residence: otherwise the grade of I will be changed to the grade of F by the Registrar. It is the student's responsibility to initiate the completion of unfulfilled requirements with the instructor.

W (Withdrawal) — This symbol indicates that a student was permitted to withdraw without penalty. Withdrawals without penalty will not be permitted after the midpoint of the total grading period (including final examinations), except in cases of hardship as determined by the academic dean and the Vice President for Student Affairs.

V (Audit) — This symbol indicates that a student has been given permission to sit for a course without receiving quality points or a grade other than "V". Students may not transfer from audit to credit or vice versa. Students may register, however, on a credit basis for a course that has previously been audited.

K (Credit — This symbol indicates that a student has been given credit for the course via a credit by examination program approved by the faculty of the College. "K" Credit may be provided for a course the student has previously audited if the institutional procedures for credit by examination are followed.

Note:

The numbers in parentheses after course descriptions in the catalog refer to lecture, lab and credit hours. Lecture Lab Credit 5 5

Withdrawal From Classes (Dropping)

Students desiring to withdraw from classes should secure the Drop/Add forms from their academic department; obtain their instructor's signature; take forms to cashier's office; and then to the Registrar's Office for computer processing. The last day to withdraw without penalty is at mid quarter of each quarter. 38

ACADEMIC REGULATIONS Academic Advisement

Each student at Savannah State College is assigned an advisor who has the responsibility of assisting the student in planning and completing an appropriate academic program. The Dean of the Academic School provides general direction to the advisement program, with department heads coordinating activities within their respective areas, assigning advisors to students majoring in the academic discipline(s) for which division or department is responsible. The di- rector of Developmental Studies assigns advisors from the staff to those students who are undecided about the discipline in which they will major. Each student is required to plan his or her academic program with the advisor's assistance, and to obtain the advisor's approval of his schedule of courses each Quarter. Each advisor has the responsibility of counseling advisees about the appropri- ateness of the academic program they have selected as well as the appropriate- ness of the schedules of courses selected by the advisee to the timely completion of that program. In addition, the advisor has the responsibility of monitoring the academic progress of advisees, and of assisting them in evaluating their progress and in making decisions about their present and future academic ca- reers based upon that evaluation.

Advisors of junior and senior students will concern themselves specifically with the student's progress toward graduation, maintaining a continually up- dated record of courses taken and grades received. The advisor will also assist advisees in completing the Application for Graduation, and will certify to the Director of Admissions and Records that all requirements had been met up to the time that the Application was prepared. CLASS ATTENDANCE

Savannah State College endeavors to provide optimum conditions for student learning. Class attendance is, therefore, required of students to ensure they will be exposed to the many classes, laboratories and related experiences that are provided for their benefit. It is recognized that extenuating circumstances may at times make it difficult for students to attend every class meeting. Should a student be unable to attend a class, it is his/her responsibility to notify the professor of the reasons for such absences, and to arrange with the professor the conditions under which any required work that was missed may be made up. Credit may or may not be awarded for any course if the number of absences exceeds the number of times that the class meets per week.

During the first week of each quarter, professors will notify each class of the attendance policy, emphasizing what constitutes excessive absences, and the penalty therefor. A student may appeal any absence-related decision of a pro- fessor to the department head, to the Dean of the professor's school, and ulti- mately to the Vice President for Academic Affairs. REPORTING OF GRADES At Mid-quarter, and at the end of the quarter each faculty member submits to the Office of Admissions and Records the grade reports for each class. These reports are prepared in multiple copies, with copies for the Director ofAdmissions 39

and Records, the academic vice president, the department head, and the in- structor. In addition, each student receives a Grade Report at the end of each quarter containing the grades and credit hours earned in each course in which he was enrolled, his grade-point average for the quarter, and his cumulative grade-point average.

Mid-quarter grade reports contain grades for students whose work in a course is below the C level at mid-quarter. The Office of Admissions and Records sends copies of such reports to the students, and to the department heads.

CHANGES IN GRADES

Once a grade has been reported to the Office of Admissions and Records it can be changed only under the following conditions:

1. Presentation to the dean of the school of conclusive, documentary evidence that the grade was reported in error;

2. Following the procedure of removal of an I (incomplete) grade; or

3. Upon the recommendation by a committee appointed to conduct a hearing of a student's challenge of a grade, and the acceptance of that recommen- dation by the vice president for academic affairs.

FORGIVENESS CLAUSE

"The College will not count the quarter hours and quality points if a course is repeated and passed with a grade higher than "D." All grades will remain on the transcript. Adjusted grade point averages will be computed on each quarter and used as the official average."

GRADE CHALLENGES BY STUDENTS

Students who feel that they have received an unfair grade in any course should meet with the instructor within 7 calendar days of the first day of class of the next quarter (excluding summer) in an effort to effect a resolution. If a resolution satisfactory to the student is not effected, the student may challenge the grade by writing a letter of appeal within 7 days after meeting with the instructor to the head of the department in which the course was offered. This procedure must be accomplished within 14 days of the first day of classes of that quarter. If a resolution satisfactory to the student is not effected, the department head may appoint a review committee (exclusive of both the department head and the instructor). The review committee, after hearing both the instructor and the student, submits its report and recommendation to the academic vice-president (through the department head). If the vice-president accepts the review com- mittee's recommendation that the grade be changed or if he reverses a recom- mendation that a grade not be changed, he directs the registrar to make the appropriate change on the student's record. The student must show adequate evidence of unfair grading for the department head to grant a hearing. 40

CALCULATING THE CUMULATIVE AVERAGE

Determinations of scholastic standing are generally based upon a cumulative grade point average which appears on each student's permanent record. The cumulative grade point average is calculated by dividing the total number of grade points earned in academic courses at Savannah State College by the total number of academic credit hours attempted at Savannah State College. Credits earned in other institutions, credit by examination, credits which carry S/U grades, institutional credit courses, and courses specifically excluded by college policy are not used in computing the cumulative grade point average.

RECOGNITION OF EXCELLENCE IN SCHOLARSHIP

Persons who have not been subject to disciplinary action while earning su- perior grades, and who likewise, have not incurred any academic deficiencies, are eligible for honors status as here indicated:

1. Students who maintain an average of B in not less than a normal load during a given quarter are eligible for listing on the Honor Roll.

2. Students who maintain an average of 3.50 or higher, in a full program in a quarter will have their names placed on the Dean's List for that quarter.

3. Students who maintain an average of 3.00 during any quarter may secure permission to take additional hours during the following quarter, the total not to exceed twenty hours. Additionally, students whose general average is 3.00 or better may be permitted to take quarter hours in excess of a normal load up to a limit of 20 quarter hours. GRADUATION HONORS

Graduation with honors is based upon completion of a minimum attendance period of six quarters and completion of at least ninety hours at Savannah State College. In addition, students who graduate with honors must attain the follow- ing grade-point average entire period of college attendance:

Cum Laude 3.00 Magna Cum Laude 3.40 Summa Cum Laude 3.75 41

ACADEMIC PROBATION AND SUSPENSION

Savannah State College is operated for students who demonstrate seriousness of purpose and ability and disposition to profit by college work. Students who fail to fulfill the scholarship requirements of the institution are subject to scho- lastic discipline. At the end of each quarter the Office the Registrar computes cumulative grade point averages in order to determine the academic standing of all students in residence. At that time the Registrar shall notify the Vice- President for Academic Affairs of the College prior to notification of students and their parents or guardians of the academic probation, suspension, or dis- missal of students. In addition, he shall notify other appropriate personnel of this action.

1. Any student who earns a D or F in English 107, or 109 or in any course required in his major or minor must repeat the course during the next quarter that it is offered.

2. Stages of Progress Minimum Cummulative Quarter Hours Grade Point Average 1-45 1.5 46-90 1.7 91 and above 2.0

A student whose cumulative grade average at the end of any quarter is at or above the minimum grade point average for his appropriate stage of progress will be considered in good standing.

A student whose cumulative grade point average first falls below the min- imum grade point average for his stage ofprogress will then be placed on academic warning.

A student on academic warning whose cumulative grade point average is not raised to the satisfactory level for his stage of progress at the end of the quarter will then be placed on academic probation.

A student who does not achieve the cumulative grade point average for his stage of progress, but does maintain a 2.0 grade point average for his probationary quarter will be continued on probation for the next quarter of attendance.

A student who does not raise his grade point average to the minimum level for his stage of progress or achieve a 2.0 grade point average during his probationary quarter will be suspended from the College for one quarter.

A student on probation (1) may not register for less than ten hours and not more than thirteen hours; (2) must repeat all courses in which he earned the grade of F that are prescribed in his curriculum and all courses in his major and minor concentration and Freshman English in which he earned the grade of D; (3) must report to his academic advisor for coun- seling immediately after being notified of his probationary status, and (4) will not be permitted to represent the College or hold office in any college organization. 42

4. Any student who fails all of his classes during a given quarter, or who withdraws from all of his classes without an approved withdrawal from the College, will not be permitted to enroll for the succeeding quarter.

5. A student who has been suspended for academic reasons may be read- mitted when he has complied with the following procedures:

a. Submission of an Application for Readmission at least thirty (30) days prior to the beginning of the quarter that he expects to return;

b. Submission of evidence of increased motivation and maturity.

The College reserves the right to deny admission to any student who has been suspended for academic reasons.

6. Applications for Readmission are considered by the Committee on Ad- mission on the basis of detailed information concerning the cause of failure, academic goals, entrance tests, college grades previously earned, length of absence, motivation, outside commitments, and recommendations from appropriate personnel.

7. A student readmitted after suspension will be placed on academic pro- bation and will be subject to the regulations listed in number two above. ACADEMIC SUSPENSION FOR DEVELOPMENTAL STUDIES STUDENTS

A Developmental Studies student who fails to successfully complete all De- velopmental Studies course work within the 4 quarter limitation is academically dismissed for one quarter. A student who fails to complete all Developmental Studies requirements within one quarter of re-entry, after the first dismissal, shall be excluded for one year (4 quarters).

Students who have been suspended may be readmitted after one quarter, but they will be allowed only one attempt per required area to satisfy any Devel- opmental Studies deficiencies and shall take no college level work simultaneously at the College. Readmitted students not exiting within one quarter will be sus- pended for four quarters after which they may only be readmitted upon written permission of the president, and then only for one attempt per area during which time students shall not simultaneously take any college level work at the College. STUDENT ACADEMIC GRIEVANCE APPELLATE PROCEDURES (Disciplinary)

A. Original Jurisdiction:

1. Initial and Original Jurisdiction — All student grievances of an ac- ademic nature in the College shall rest with the individual departments for a decision. The student shall have the option of accepting this de- cision or of making an Appeal. This step is handled by the School's Educational Policy Committee. 43

(a) The hearing will commence by a reading of the charges and the decision of the department of original jurisdiction.

(b) Evidence will be presented to sustain the decision. WITHDRAWING FROM COLLEGE

Students at Savannah State College are regarded as young adults who are capable of making mature decisions, with minimum counseling, about their educational plans. Accordingly, any student who feels that the circumstances require his withdrawal from the College may do so by filing the appropriate forms in the office of the Vice President for Student Affairs.

Students who withdraw after the midpoint of each quarter (see Academic Calendar in this catalog and the quarterly Schedule of Classes) will receive the grade of "WF" except in cases of hardship as approved by the academic dean in 44

consultation with the Vice President for Student Affairs. Students should ini- tially petition the Vice President for Student Affairs for relief due to extenuating circumstances resulting in undue hardship.

The Vice President for Student Affairs, counselors, and advisers will counsel with the student in an effort to determine whether the circumstances are such that the College can provide a remedy which will make it possible for the student to remain in school. If such remedy cannot be afforded, the Dean of Students, or his designated representative, will formally approve the request for with- drawal and forward the appropriate forms to the offices of the Academic Vice President, the Director of Admissions and Records, and the Vice President for Business and Finance.

Students not able to follow this procedure should write or have a representative write to the Dean of Students, requesting permission to withdraw. Students who withdraw without giving formal notice will forfeit claims for any refunds. THE LAST DAY TO WITHDRAW FROM ALL CLASSES FOR THE QUARTER WILL BE THE LAST DAY OF SCHEDULED CLASSES. ACCESS TO STUDENT RECORDS

Savannah State College is covered by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, as amended (FERPA), which is designed to protect the student's rights with regard to education records maintained by the institution. Under the Act, the student has the following rights:

1. to inspect and review education records maintained by the institution that pertain to the student,

2. to challenge the content of records (except grades—which can only be challenged through the academic appeal procedure) on the ground that they are inaccurate, misleading or a violation of privacy or other rights; and

3. to control disclosures from educational records with certain exceptions.

Savannah State College's written policy on "Access to Student Records" com- plies with the provisions of the Act. A copy of this policy and a copy of a summary of the FERPA regulations may be obtained in the Admissions and Records Office. Students also have the right to file complaints with the FERPA Office of the Department of Education, Washington, D.C. 20201, regarding alleged violations of the Act. RELEASE OF DIRECTORY INFORMATION

Directory information will be treated as public information and be generally available on all students and former students, at the discretion of the College.

Directory information includes the student's name; address; telephone num- ber, date and place of birth, major field of study; participation in officially rec- ognized activities and sports, height, weight, age, hometown, hobbies and general interest items of members of athletic teams; dates of attendance; degrees applied for or received; honors and awards received; and previous educational institu- tions attended by the student. 45

Any student, or parent of a student who is under eighteen (18), may refuse to permit the release of any or all of the categories of directory information until the end of each academic year (end of Spring Quarter), by submitting a written request to the College's Director of Admissions and Records within ten (10) days of the beginning of any academic quarter during which the student is enrolled. This time requirement is necessary to insure that directory information which is withheld is not included in the various college publications during the year. Of course, requests to withhold the release of directory information will be ho- nored at any time, but the college cannot be reasonably certain that some di- rectory information will not be released if the aforementioned time limits are not met. The Student Directory is usually published during the Fall Quarter; obviously, requests received after press time cannot delete information from this and similar publications, and previously released information cannot be recalled.

Inquiries from news media about students or former students should be di- rected to the Director of Public Relations. Due to the unpredictable nature and immediacy of media inquiries, notice cannot be given of media releases (non- athletic). Any student or former student who wishes to have directory infor- mation withheld should notify the Director of Public Relations prior to the an- ticipated date of any media inquiry. COASTAL GEORGIA CENTER FOR CONTINUING EDUCATION

The Coastal Georgia Center for Continuing Education was established in 1979 to combine the resources of both Armstrong State College's Community Service Division and Savannah State College's Extended Services Area. Utilizing a Downtown Center located at 305 Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard, the Dean of the Coastal Georgia Center for Continuing Education operates a unified Con- tinuing Education program dedicated to serving the people of Savannah, Chatham County, the State of Georgia and, for some programs, beyond those boundaries.

A wide variety of programs are offered at Armstrong State College, Savannah State College, the Downtown Center, and when it is appropriate, at job sites, schools, community centers and other locations in Savannah. Instructors are drawn from the faculties of both institutions, from qualified experts in the Sa- vannah community and from consultants throughout the region.

On the Savannah State campus, the Extended Services Area is responsible for the coordination of all community service/continuing education activities. Since these activities are viewed as a college-wide function, responsibility for program development is shared with the various academic units on campus. The major community service/continuing education components of the College are the short-course/conference program, and the Correspondence Study Office.

Short-Course/Conference Program

The Short-course/conference Program offers non-credit courses; conferences, seminars and workshops for the general public. Formal admission to the college is not required. 46

Classes meet once or twice weekly during the College's regular quarter. The length of a class meeting ranges from one hour to two hours. No A, B, C, grades are given, but the S or U mark is given denoting a participant's satisfactory or unsatisfactory completion of a course. Continuing Education Units are awarded participants who successfully complete a course, and a record of enrollments maintained.

Correspondence Study

The Correspondence Program — In addition to credit instruction on the cam- pus, Savannah State College is authorized to offer correspondence courses. Such courses have become recognized sources for public education, reflecting a sense of obligation to those who cannot undertake resident instruction and to those who do not require instruction for personal growth and enrichment.

Students registering in correspondence study should meet the minimal re- quirements of graduation from an accredited high school.

College correspondence study is designed as an auxiliary to regular campus classroom and study materials and instructors are usually the same as those for resident instruction.

Courses completed in this program and courses completed in a similar program at recognized institutions will be accepted for credit toward graduation at Sa- vannah State College under the following conditions:

1) Not more than 45 quarter hours may be earned in correspondence.

2) Not more than 50% of the required courses in the major or minor may be completed in correspondence.

3) Courses may not be taken in correspondence study to remove deficiencies earned in residence.

4) Correspondence courses may not be taken by students who have completed 135 or more quarter hours.

Students desiring to have correspondence credit counted toward graduation should obtain written permission from the dean of the school in which the stu- dent is enrolled and present this statement to the Correspondence Study Office.

Information concerning courses, credit, fees, examinations, textbooks, etc., may be obtained from: Correspondence Study Office, Savannah State College, Savannah, Georgia 31404.

Preprofessional study is also provided for persons desiring to enter the professions of engineering, law, medicine, veterinary medicine, dentistry and pharmacy. GEORGIA INTERN PROGRAM

Students who are enrolled full-time at Savannah State College are eligible to participate in the Georgia Legislative Internship Program. Students selected to participate in the Program are assigned to a legislative office or to legislative committees in either the House or Senate, and work directly under and are responsible to the office head or committee chairman. The first hand experience of observing and participating in the legislative process is considered as part of the student's academic program and the student may receive academic credit for such participation. The program at Savannah State College is under the general direction of the head of the Department of Social and Behavioral Sci- ences. INTERNATIONAL INTERCULTURAL STUDIES PROGRAM

The International Intercultural Studies Program (IISP) of the University Sys- tem of Georgia provides students with a multitude of opportunities to study abroad while earning academic credit toward completion of degree requirements 48

at their home campus. The HSP currently offers summer study abroad programs in Western Europe, the Soviet Union, Israel, Canada, and Mexico, and countries in Western Europe.

Studying abroad enables students to increase knowledge of a foreign language, provides the opportunity to gain insights into and appreciation for the cultures and institutions of other peoples, facilitates the development of relevant career skills, and contributes to personal maturity, a sense of independence, self-knowl- edge, and confidence.

IISP programs are open to all undergraduate students with a minimum cu- mulative GPA of 2.5; however, certain programs may require a higher GPA and completion of prerequisites. Graduate students are required to have a 3.0 GPA. Students in the University System of Georgia who are eligible for financial aid may use that aid toward IISP programs. A limited number of scholarships is available from some System institutions. For further information, contact the office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs or contact the IISP directly at 1 Park Place South Building, Suite 817, Atlanta, GA 30303. Telephone: (404) 651-2450. THE LIBRARY

Refunds will not be made to students who do not withdraw officially, nor will refunds be given for reduced loads.

A refund of all quarterly mandatory fees—non-resident fees, matriculation fees, health fees, student activities fees, athletic fees— shall be made in the event of the death of a student at any time during an academic quarter.

The Schedule of Refunds refers to calendar days, beginning with the first day of scheduled registration.

REFUND POLICY PERTAINING TO STUDENTS RECEIVING FINANCIAL AID

When a student is a recipient of funds from Title IV Programs other than the College Workstudy Program, any refund must be applied toward full satisfaction of the Title IV award/s. The balance will be refunded to other scholarships (if applicable) that the student may have received. After all financial aid sources have been refunded, the remainder will be issued to the student.

In the case of Perkins Loans, the portion of the refund attributable to the loan would be applied as a reduction of the principal balance in the student's loan account with the College.

In the case of a Guaranteed Student Loan, the portion of the refund attrib- utable to the loan would be paid by the College to the lending institution.

The method used in computing refunds may change as federal regulations dictate. 53

UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA RESIDENCY REQUIREMENTS

To be considered a legal resident of Georgia, the applicant must establish the following facts to the satisfaction of the Registrar.

1. (a) If a person is 18 years of age or older, he or she may register as a resident student only upon showing that he or she has been a legal resident of Georgia for a period of at least twelve months immediately preceding the date of registration.

(b) No emancipated minor or person 18 years of age or older shall be deemed to have gained or acquired in-state residence status for fee pur- poses while attending any educational institution in this State, in the absence of a clear demonstration that he or she has in fact established legal residence in this state.

2. If a person is under 18 years of age, he or she may register as a resident student only upon showing that his or her supporting parent or guardian has been a legal resident of Georgia for a period of at least twelve months immediately preceding the date of registration.

4. Non-resident graduate students who hold teaching or research assistant- ships requiring at least one-third time service may register as students in the institution in which they are employed on payment of resident fees.

5. Full-time teachers in the public schools of Georgia and their dependent children may enroll as students in the University System institutions on the payment of resident fees, when such teachers have been legal resident of Georgia for the immediately preceding nine months, were engaged in teaching during such nine month period, and have been employed to teach full-time in the public schools of Georgia during the ensuing school year.

6. All aliens shall be classified as non-resident students; provided, however, that an alien who is living in this country under a visa permitting per- manent residents shall have the same privilege of qualifying for resident status for fee purposes as a citizen of the United States.

RESIDENCY RECLASSIFICATION

A student is responsible for registering under the proper residency classifi- cation. A student classified as a nonresident who believes that he/she is entitled to be reclassified as a legal resident may petition the Registrar for a change in status. The petition must be filed no later than sixty (60) days after the quarter begins in order for the student to be considered for reclassification for the quarter. If the petition is granted, reclassification will not be retroactive to prior quarters. The necessary forms for this purpose are available in the Registrar's Office.

WAIVERS - CONTIGUOUS COUNTIES

The border tuition policy set forth by the Board of Regents states that students from counties bordering on a county in which a University System of Georgia institution is located shall pay resident tuition fees. This policy includes students from Beaufort and Jasper Counties, South Carolina, who wish to attend Savan- nah State College. MILITARY PERSONNEL

Active duty military personnel and their spouses and legal dependents sta- tioned in Georgia may qualify for waiver of non-resident tuition. Military per- sonnel should contact the Education Center at their installation for information about current financial and other assistance available to them as members of the armed forces. All military personnel planning to use military tuition assis- tance programs to defray expenses associated with matriculation at Savannah State College should be sure to coordinate with the Registrar for guidance as to procedures. 55

DEGREE AND GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS EXIT EXAMINATIONS

Additional competency tests appropriate to a student's program of study may be required by the College, and by the student's academic department prior to graduation. Information relative to these tests is available in the student's ac- ademic department.

Any student failing to demonstrate required proficiency on any competency test may be required to complete such additional courses as are necessary to correct the deficiency. Courses required and completed under this provision may be with or without academic credit and may be required without regard to prior course credits in these disciplines. GRADUATION

A degree will be awarded only to students who meet the standards of per- formance, academic requirements, and residence requirements of an academic school. Degrees are conferred formally at commencement exercises at the end of the spring quarter. APPLICATION FOR GRADUATION

All candidates for a degree must file a formal application for graduation with the Admissions and Records Office. Associate degree candidates should apply in the quarter in which they expect to attain their sixtieth credit hour or in the third quarter preceding their expected graduation date, whichever comes first. Baccalaureate candidates should apply in the quarter in which they expect to attain their one hundred and thirty-fifth credit hour or in the fourth quarter preceding their expected graduation date, whichever comes first. Graduate de- gree candidates must apply at least two quarters in advance of the expected date of graduation. The Office of Admissions and Records will inform the stu- dent's academic department when the application is filed. The student's major department will conduct an audit and inform the student of any remaining requirements. The Office of Admissions and Records conducts an independent audit to insure that all degree requirements will have been satisfied. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACCALAUREATE DEGREE

1. A minimum of 185 quarter hours,including health, physical education, and orientation.

2. A scholastic average of 2.0 or higher.

3. Satisfactory completion of the minimum requirements of the Core Cur-

riculum as outlined for Area I, II, and III, and in the specific degree programs for Area IV. 56

4. Satisfactory completion of core courses (PSC 200 and HIS 202 or 203) designed to give students proficiency in United States and Georgia history and government.

5. Satisfactory completion of the University System of Georgia Language Skills Examination.

6. A prescribed school or departmental major (such as business administra- tion, chemistry, or engineering technology) or a major of at least 45 hours in one department and a minor of 25-29 hours, with no grade below "C" in major, minor, or special subject requirements. Certain major courses must be taken in residence at this College.

7. Residence of at least one year at Savannah State College. Students are required to spend the senior year (a minimum of 45 quarter hours) in residence.

8. Completion of all the above requirements within eight calendar years. The College reserve the right to allow exceptions to the requirements when recommended by the head of the department in which the student is majoring. NOTE:

Graduation requirements include a 2.00 minimum graduation grade point av- erage for undergraduate degrees. The computation of this graduation grade point average will employ only the final attempt in courses which have been repeated. With the preceding exception, the graduation grade point average will be com- puted in the manner prescribed in The Grading System and Cumulative Grade Point Average sections of the General Catalog. Credits earned in other insti- tutions or by examination, and courses which carry S/U grades, are not used in computing the graduation grade point average.

All incomplete grades for previous quarters must be received in the Admissions and Records Office in writing thirty (30) days prior to graduation date or com- pletion of academic requirements. It is the student's responsibility to see to it that incomplete grades are properly recorded in the appropriate offices.

Noncurrent quarter course grades from colleges other than Savannah State College must be in the Admissions and Records Office by the last day of regis- tration of the quarter of graduation.

REGENTS' TESTING PROGRAM

The policy of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia requires that each institution administer an examination to assess the competency level in reading and writing of all students enrolled in undergraduate degree programs in University System institutions. The Regents' Policy statement appears below:

Each institution of the University System of Georgia shall assure the other institutions, and the System as a whole, that students obtaining a degree from that institution possess literacy competence, that is, certain minimum skills of reading and writing. 57

The Regents' Testing Program has been developed to help in the at- tainment of this goal. The objectives of the Testing Program are: (1) to provide Systems wide information on the status of student competence in the areas of reading and writing; and (2) to provide a uniform means of identifying those students who fail to attain the minimum levels of competence in the areas of reading and writing.

Passing the Regents' Testing is denned as having passed all components of the Test by scoring above the cutoff score specified for each compo- nent. The test may be administered either in its entirety or as one or more components depending on the needs of the students. If one com- ponent of the Test is passed, that component need not be retaken; this provision is retroactive to all students who have taken the Test in any form since the inception of the program.

The intent of this policy is that passing the Regent's Test occur before the end of the student's sophomore year, that is, before the completion of 105 hours of degree credit. Students who fail the test must retake and pass the Test. Each institution shall provide an appropriate pro- gram of remediation and shall require deficient students to participate in that program prior to retaking the test.

INSTITUTIONAL POLICIES REGARDING THE REGENTS' TESTING PROGRAM

All students enrolled in undergraduate degree programs are required to pass the Regents' Examination in reading and writing prior to graduation.

Requirements

1. Students who have earned forty-five (45) credit hours and passed English 107 and 108 are REQUIRED to take Regents' Examination during the next quarter of enrollment after having earned forty-five credit hours.

2. Students who have earned sixty (60) credit hours (regardless of the English courses passed) are REQUIRED to take Regents' Examination during the next quarter of enrollment after having earned sixty credit hours.

3. First time examinees must take both parts of the Examination in one administration.

4. First time examinees are required to sit for the Regents' Testing Program "Test Preparation Seminar" prior to taking the Examination. This seminar is jointly sponsored by the staff of the Comprehensive Counseling Center and the Vice President for Academic Affairs. A student may be excused from this seminar only by the Dean of the School in which the student is enrolled.

5. Students who fail to sit for the Examination as required under numbers 1 and 2 above will be suspended.

6. Students who pass both parts of the Examination in one administration or in separate administrations will be considered to have met the Regents' Examination requirements. 58

7. Those students who, prior to January 1, 1980, failed to pass both parts of the Examination in one administration, but who passed both parts in separate administrations, are now considered to have met the Regents' Examination requirement. Ifthese students have completed all other grad- uation requirements, their date of graduation (the date which will appear on the diploma) will be the first institutional graduation date after January 1, 1980.

Remediation for Regents Examination

Students who have not passed the Regents' Examination before they earn seventy-five (75) hours of credit or who fail either part of the examination after earning seventy-five hours of credit must enroll in English 092 (Writing) or English 093 (Reading) during the quarter subsequent to earning 75 credit hours or failing the Examination. Permission will not be given to retake the Exami- nation unless students complete the remediation courses. Failure to enroll in these required remediation courses will result in cancellation of a student's registration for that quarter. Each of these courses carries five hours of insti- tutional credit and requires that the students successfully complete approxi- mately fifty (50) hours of classroom and laboratory instruction each quarter. Grades in English 092 and 093 will be "S" (Satisfactory), "IP" (In Progress), or "U" (Unsatisfactory). No other grade will be given for either course.

Savannah State College students who may be jointly enrolled at other System schools are required to take their Regents' Examination remedial courses at Savannah State College.

Students who have failed to pass both parts of the Examination must register for both English 092 and English 093. These courses must not be taken con- currently; for example, students must take English 092 during the first five weeks of a quarter and English 093 during the second five weeks of that same quarter. Students required to take both English 092 and English 093 in a single quarter will not be permitted to enroll for more than five (5) regular credit quarter hours.

Students who are required to take either English 092 or English 093 will not be permitted to enroll for more than ten (10) regular credit hours.

Students who have met all other requirements for graduation may register for both English 092 and 093 concurrently.

Failure to sit for the Examination during the quarter in which remediation is taken will result in suspension for one quarter. Students who have been suspended for failure to sit for the Examination when required must re-enroll for remedial courses during their next quarter of enrollment and they must also sit for the Examination that quarter. If these students fail to enroll in reme- diation their registration will be cancelled. 59

Student Responsibility

Students are responsible for complying with all Institutional policies regarding the Regents' Testing Program. Failure to comply will result in disciplinary action ranging from cancellation of registration to suspension, depending upon the gravity of the situation.

Academic Advising

Academic advisors should verify compliance with this policy before signing- off on class schedules of their advisees. Accordingly, academic advisors should:

1. Require that students with 45 credit hours sit for the Regents' Test upon the completion of English 107 and 108.

2. Assure that advisees adhere to all policies regarding required sitting and remediation.

3. Encourage students to register for freshmen English during each quarter of enrollment until they pass the three required courses.

Transfer Students

All transfer students from within the System shall be subject to all provisions of this policy. Students from institutions outside the System who transfer to Savannah State College with seventy-five (75) or more earned degree credit hours shall take the Test during the initial quarter of enrollment and in sub- sequent quarters shall be subject to all provisions of this policy.

Graduate Students

Students with baccalaureate degrees from colleges and universities within the University of Georgia System or from other, regionally accredited colleges and universities will be exempt from these Policies.

Foreign Students

Students whose native language is other than English may be exempted from taking the Regents' Test; however, such students must take the Savannah State College English Competency Test for Foreign Students in lieu of the Regents' Test. Such students are subject to all of the provisions of this policy regarding eligibility and remediation.

Handicapped Students

Students with legal visual, auditory, or motor handicaps may arrange for local certification of competency with the Regents' Test Coordinator. 60

Essay Test Review Policy

The Regents' Test itself and the scoring criteria are not subject to review; the same methods of scoring will be used during the review process as that in the original scoring. Scoring will follow the normal holistic procedure.

1. A student may request a formal review of his failure on the essay com- ponent of the Regents' Test if that student's essay received at least one passing score among the three scores awarded and if the student has completed English 107, 108, and 109.

2. A student must initiate the review procedure by mid-term of his first quarter of enrollment after the quarter in which the essay was failed. The review must be initiated, however, within one calendar year from the quarter in which the failure occurred.

3. The review will be initiated at Savannah State College by the student's completing a "Request for Review" form available at the Office of the Regents' Test Coordinator. The Regents' Coordinator will determine the student's eligibility based upon the criteria in paragraphs 1 and 2 above. The review, if warranted, will be conducted by a three-member panel (composed of two English instructors and one additional person) appointed by the Vice President of the College and designated as the on-campus review panel.

4. The on-campus review panel may (1) sustain, by majority opinion, the essay's failing score, thus terminating the review process, or (2) recom- mend, by majority opinion, the re-scoring of the essay by the Regents' Testing Program central office. The Regents' Test Coordinator will notify the student of the results of the on-campus review.

5. If the on-campus review panel recommends re-scoring of the essay, the Regents' Test Coordinator will transmit that recommendation in writing along with a copy of the essay, to the office of the System's Director of the Regents' Testing Program.

The System's Director will utilize the services of three (3) experienced Regent's essay scorers other than those involved in the original scoring. The decision of this panel on the merits of the essay will be final, thus terminating the review process. The Regents' Test Coordinator will notify the student of the results of the review.

6. All the applicable regulations of the Regents' Test Policy remain in effect for those students whose essays are under review, including those regu- lations relating to remediation and to retaking the Test.

Registration Procedures for the Regents' Exam

All students will be notified by the Comprehensive Counseling and Testing Center Office of the date and time they are required to take the Regents test. Failure to take the test at the prescribed time will result in disciplinary action ranging from a reprimand to suspension. 61

Federal Financial Aid Programs (Title IV Programs)

Federal Financial Aid Programs are administered by the Financial Aid Office at Savannah State College. It is a basic principle that each student shall be helped as an individual with consideration of his own unique situation, circum- stances, and need. The primary purpose of the Financial Aid Office is to provide financial assistance to students who, without such aid would be unable to attend Savannah State College. If you are enrolled or accepted for enrollment and are a citizen or permanent resident of the United States, you are eligible to apply for assistance under the following programs:

Grants, loans, and College Work-Study are available through this office to help defray educational expenses at Savannah State College. Grants do not have to be repaid. Most loans must be repaid in cash. College Work-Study awards are earned during the period of enrollment. You must be enrolled at least half- time to receive aid from Pell Grant, Perkins Loan, College Work-Study, Stafford Loan, and Supplemental Loan for Students/Plus programs. You must be enrolled full-time to receive the Student Incentive Grant and Regents' Scholarship.

A. GRANTS

1. Pell Grant — This grant is designated for undergraduate students working toward a first bachelor's degree. The amount of the grant is determined by the Cost of Attendance, the Pell Grant Index shown on the Student Aid Report and the student's enrollment status and hous- ing status. Students full-time (12 or more credit hours) will receive full eligibility. Students enrolled for 9 to 11 credit hours will receive three- fourths eligibility. Students enrolled for 6 to 8 credit hours will receive one-half eligibility. 62

2. Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant Program (SEOG) — This grant is designated for undergraduate students and eligibility is based on Established Financial Need.

3. Student Incentive Grant (SIG) — This grant is designated for under- graduate Georgia residents enrolled full-time.

B. LOANS

1. Perkins Loan — Loan eligibility is based on Established Financial Need. Repayment of the loan begins nine months after a student grad- uates, leaves school, or enrolls less than half-time. Interest accrues at five percent (5%) per year during the repayment period.

2. Regents' Scholarship — This award is designated for Georgia resi- dents who are enrolled full-time and ranked academically in the upper 25% of their class and who have Established Financial Need. The max- imum amount of this award is $750 per academic year. Repayment may be satisfied by working full-time in the State of Georgia one year for each $1,000 received, or by making cash repayment with three percent (3%) interest per year.

3. Supplemental Loan for Students/Parent Loan for Undergraduate Stu- dents — These loans are educational loans to parents of undergrad- uate students, independent undergraduate students, or to graduate students. The current interest rate is 12%. Loan eligibility is based on the Cost of Attendance, other aid the student may receive, and state/ lender restrictions. Parents and students may borrow up to $4,000 per year to a $20,000 cumulative total.

Supplemental loan repayment begins after the funds are disbursed by the lender. The first payment is due within sixty days; however, under specific circumstances, a student borrower may defer interest and/or principle payments of the loan while attending school. Contact the lender for details. PLUS loan repayment begins after the funds are disbursed by the lender. The first payment is due within sixty days; however, under specific circumstances, a parent borrower may defer interest and/or principle payments of the loan while the student is attending school. Contact the lender for details. Pell Grant and Stafford Loan eligibility must be determined prior to certification of SLS ap- plications.

4. Stafford Loan — A Stafford Loan is a low-interest, need-based loan made to students by a lender such as the Georgia Student Finance Authority, a bank, credit union, savings and loan association, etc. The interest rate is currently 8%. Once approved, the student will receive Stafford Loan funds by multiple disbursement through the College. Loan repayment begins 6 months after leaving school for most loans. Some loan repayments may not begin untiil 9 to 12 months after leaving school. Students are required to sign a Promissory Note prior to re- ceiving any Stafford Loan funds. The note will specify the interest rate and the number of months before repayment begins (the grace period). If the student falls below half-time enrollment, the grace-period will begin. It is the student's responsibility to notify the lender when he/ she leaves school. The amount of the monthly payment will be deter- 63

mined by the lender based upon the cumulative loan amount and fed- eral regulations. First-time borrowers will be contacted by the Financial Aid Office to satisfy entrance interview requirements.

C. COLLEGE WORK-STUDY

College Work-Study (CWS) — Eligibility for College Work-Study is based on Established Financial Need. Amounts range from $400 to $900 per quarter. Students are assigned jobs located on campus and work schedules are made around the student's class schedule. 64

STANDARDS OF SATISFACTORY ACADEMIC PROGRESS FOR STUDENTS RECEIVING FEDERAL STUDENT AID FUNDS (Title IV)

Savannah State College is required by the U.S. Department of Education to establish minimum standards of satisfactory academic progress. Satisfactory academic progress means that the student is proceeding in a positive manner toward fulfilling degrees requirements. The Satisfactory Academic Progress pol- icy includes three major components: quality, quantity, and time frame.

I. Quality and Quantity

Quality and quantity are measured by the Director of Admissions and Records at the end of each quarter in accordance with the Academic Probation and Suspension policy found in the Savannah State College General Catalog.

A. Undergraduate Students

Students will be dismissed for one quarter after two successive quarters on probation if their cumulative average is below that required for a designated number of total hours attempted as follows:

Stages of Progress Required Minimum Quarter Hours Cumulative Average 0-45 1.5 46-90 1.7 91 and above 2.0

Students will be considered enrolled for any quarter in which they receive a grade or grades other than W. Students will not be subject to dismissal for academic reasons if they meet the standards listed above at the end of two quarters of probation or if they carry a minimum of 10 hours and maintain a quarterly average of 2.0. Transfer credits are not included in the computation of the cumulative grade average. Total hours attempted consist of all hours attempted at Savannah State (including all hours with grades of F and WF), plus all hours transferred to SSC. Grades of I and W are not included in hours attempted.

Any student who fails all of his classes during a given quarter, or who stops attending all classes without an approved withdrawal from the College, will not be permitted to enroll for the succeeding quarter.

Upon dismissal for academic reasons, a student must apply for read- mission. Readmission may be granted at the discretion of the Com- mittee on Admission.

Financial aid will be reinstated when a student who is allowed to re- enroll after an academic dismissal meets the following criteria in order to receive aid during subsequent quarters of enrollment: 66

a) enroll one quarter at their own expense; and

b) meet the conditions set by the school or college; and

c) meet the criteria in the satisfactory academic progress time table.

B. Graduate Students

Students may be dismissed by their department at the end of the quarter if they have not made sufficient academic progress to warrant continuance of study. Termination of students will follow policies and procedures adopted by the department.

Students with a cumulative graduate course average of below 3.0 for two consecutive quarters are placed on academic probation by the Grad- uate school. Then they must make a 3.0 or higher quarterly graduate average each succeeding quarter that their overall cumulative graduate average is below 3.0. These students are no longer on probation when their cumulative graduate average is 3.0 or above. If they make below a 3.0 quarterly average while on probation, they are dismissed.

C. Developmental Studies Students

Students who do not complete the requirements for each developmental Studies area after a maximum of four (4) attempts per area will be suspended from the institution for one quarter.

A student who is readmitted will be allowed one attempt per area to satisfy any Developmental Studies deficiencies, and shall take no other work simultaneously without authorization from the Director of De- velopmental Studies. Readmitted students not exiting Developmental Studies within one attempt per area will then be suspended for three quarters after which they may only be readmitted upon written per- mission of the President, and then only for one attempt per area (during this time students will not be allowed to take any other courses).

Only the first 45 hours attempted in Developmental studies will be allowed in determining aid eligibility.

II. Time Frame Student financial aid recipients must show measurable progress toward degree completion by earning a required minimum number of hours for the total number of quarters enrolled. The normal academic work load during an academic year is 15 hours per quarter for undergraduates and 10 hours per quarter for graduate students. Time frame is measured by the office of Student Financial Aid using the following satisfactory academic progress time table: dumber of Required Minimum Number of Required Minimum Quarters Cumulative Quarters Cumulative Enrolled Hours Earned Enrolled Hours Earned 1 7 10 93 2 15 11 105 3 23 12 117 4 31 13 130 5 39 14 143 6 47 15 156 7 58 16 169 8 70 17 182 9 82 18 195 67

In addition to the previously stated standards, student financial aid recipients must comply with a given time frame in completing degree requirements. Un- dergraduate students will be given a time frame of 18 quarters and graduate students will be given a time frame of 9 quarters to complete degrees require- ments.

If you received Federal student aid for the first time on or after July 1, 1987 and you are enrolled in a program that's longer than two years, the following definition of satisfactory progress also applies to you: You must be maintaining a "C" average by the end of your second academic year of study. You must continue to maintain satisfactory academic progress for the rest of your course of study. 68

STUDENT DEVELOPMENT Student Affairs

The Vice President for Student Affairs at Savannah State College is respon- sible to the President for the over-all administration of Student Affairs. Staff members share with the Vice President the administration of the Student Affairs program. In the broadest sense, the Student Affairs program is concerned first with the life of the student outside the classroom.

Residence Life

There are six dormitories and one apartment building operated for students at Savannah State. These structures offer a cross section of facilities, services, and programs. Fees and qualifications for residency in the apartment building are different from those for the dormitories. Assignment to living areas is based on sex and classification. Additional criteria are used for apartment residency. Expectant mothers are not allowed to remain in dormitories.

Residence on campus complements classroom instruction. Education, as well as recreational and cultural, programs are available in the residence halls. There are certain regulations in place to insure that the living/learning processes of students are not unduly interfered with. Such regulations can be found in this catalog and publications distributed by the Office of Student Affairs and the Office of Housing.

The policies of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia require that all campus residential units for students be filled before students are permitted to live off-campus. All students below the senior year (135 quarter hours) are required to live on campus, unless a condition below exists:

a. A student is married and furnishes proof thereof;

b. A student's parents are residents of Chatham County;

c. A student commutes from a neighboring county that is within a 50 mile radius of the College;

d. A student is a legal resident of Chatham County;

e. A student (handicapped, expectant mother) with special housing needs.

All students are required to apply for housing at the beginning of the academic year, summer school, and any quarter that is proceeded by a break in continued residence. A room reservation/damage/key deposit is also returned. Students are expected to formally clear housing at the end of Spring and Summer Quarters, and any other quarter if they do not plan to return or graduate. Dormitory directors will sign the appropriate clearance form for students.

Room assignments are made for the academic year. Freshmen students live together, with the exception of student-athletes and other students by permission of the Vice President for Student Affairs. In the event that an occupant of a double room moves out, the remaining student will be assigned another room- mate, pay a higher rate, or be assigned to another room. 69

Students who are required to live in dormitories are also required to purchase a meal plan. Students who have diets prescribed by physicians may be exempted, if the College Cafeteria is unable to prepare the diet meals. Hot plates and other cooking devices are prohibited. If found in rooms, they will be confiscated and the owner charged a penalty fee of $25.00.

Student Conduct

Each student enrolled at Savannah State College is expected at all times to exemplify due respect for order, morality, and the rights of others.

The College reserves the right to exclude at any time any student whose conduct is deemed improper or prejudicial to the welfare of the college com- munity.

Counseling Service

The Comprehensive Counseling Center (CCC) offers professional counseling services to all prospective and regularly enrolled students at Savannah State College. The services offered include academic, personal, social and career coun- seling as well as an array of test information and interpretive data. These services can be provided in an individual or group setting.

The professional staff consists of the director, staff counselors, and a competent group of peer counselors. The peer counselors provide an opportunity for student- to-student counseling and they render tutorial assistance to students experi- encing academic difficulties.

The entire staff operates with the basic understanding that there are some student oriented concerns that extend beyond the scope of their personal re- sources or areas of expertise.

Additionally, students are provided with the opportunity to further enhance their skills by working as volunteers at WHCJ-FM Radio, and by working on the staff of the College newspaper, the Tiger's Roar.

DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS, PHYSICS AND COMPUTER SCIENCE TECHNOLOGY KAILASH CHANDRA, Head Venkataraman Ananthanarayanan Prince A. Jackson Ijaz A. Awan Dorothy D. Murchison Jacquelyn M. Byers Jacob Engelhardt Gian Ghuman Berenice Scott, Secretary

The Department of Mathematics, Physics and Computer Science Technology offers courses leading to the baccalaureate degree in two areas: Mathematics and Computer Science Technology and a double major in Mathematics and any area of technical sciences. Minor programs in mathematics, earth sciences, and computer science are available. The Department promotes an extensive inter- disciplinary approach that would provide students a sound educational back- ground that would make the students quite marketable and thus prepared for gainful employment, or prepared to pursue successfully courses in graduate study.

The main objectives of the Department of Mathematics, Physics, and Com- puter Science Technology are: (1) to provide a program of study in mathematics, physics, physical environmental and computer sciences which will enable stu- dents to achieve computational and problem solving skills, and understanding of basic physical principles, and will enable them to apply these basic skills to their respective areas of study; and (2) to provide students in mathematics, and computer science technology with the theory and applications necessary for use in post-baccalaureate study and/or in the work force, insights into physical and natural laws, and the analytical and logical thinking necessary for the appli- cation of these tools in the various fields as measured by departmental and national level examinations. Plan of Study FRESHMAN MATHEMATICS Entering freshman students whose scores on the combined verbal and math- ematics sections of the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) meet the requirements of regular admission are placed in Mathematics 107, 108 or 212 depending on background of student.

Applicants for admission whose SAT scores do not meet the requirements for regular admission must take the Basic Skills Examination (BSE) in English, Reading, and Mathematics. On the basis of their achievement on the Mathe- matics Tests, these students are assigned to Mathematics 107 or to a Mathe- matics course in the Developmental Studies Department. REQUIRED EXAMINATIONS

1. Each candidate for the baccalaureate degree in the Department of Math- ematics, Physics and Computer Science Technology is required to pass the reading and essay writing components of the Regents' Testing Program (RTP). 180

2. Senior Mathematics, Physics (deactivated) and Computer Science Tech- nology majors are required to take the Graduate Record Examination (Area and Aptitude Tests) as the comprehensive examination in their field.

3. All graduating seniors of the department are required to take the ETS assessment examination given by the department. EXEMPTION EXAMINATION

A student may be exempted without credit hours from MAT 107, 108, and/or 109 provided the student passes a departmental exemption examination. To exempt MAT 107, the student must have a SAT score of 400-449 or an ACT score of 16-20 in mathematics in order to be eligible to take the MAT 107 exit examination. The student with a SAT score of 450 or an ACT score of 21 or above, is eligible to enroll in MAT 108 without taking the exit examination.

The exit examination will be administered each quarter on the day before registration.

A student may be exempted with credit hours from MAT 107, 108, and 109 by passing the following Mathematical Association Examination(s) which are administered by the Director of Testing at the College.

Mathematical Association's (MAA) Examination Required for Exemption with Credit

The civil, electronics, mechanical, engineering technology and computer curricula are accredited by the Technology Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technol- ogy. The Electronics Engineering Technology program is accredited by the Na- tional Association of Radio and Telecommunications Engineers Inc. (NARTE) and the College is a certified NARTE Testing Center.

Engineering technology embraces the physical sciences, mathematics, and the practices and materials of modern industry which are utilized in the design and construction of the machines, structures, highways, power sources, process sys- tems, communication systems, and products needed to maintain a highly tech- nical society. The activities of engineering technology are concerned with translating the concepts and theories of professional engineers and scientists into actual devices and products by using tests to provide data for rational solutions and designs. These tests are followed by interpretations of data and preparation of appropriate plans for use by skilled craftsmen who produce the devices and/or products.

The objective of the engineering technology program is to provide students with an educational experience that will allow them to succeed as engineering technologists. This process requires the college to provide opportunities for stu- dents to acquire educational experiments that will allow them to apply scientific and engineering knowledge and methods coupled with technical skills in support of engineering activities.

All students majoring in Engineering Technology are required to have an engineering drawing kit which they should bring with them or be prepared to purchase upon enrollment. REGISTRATION FOR PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER

To protect public safety each state establishes laws to license engineers in- volved in projects affecting public health, safety and life. The registration process involves written examination, professional work experience and professional recommendations 193

Although it is not the goal of Savannah State College to offer programs to prepare an individual to become a registered professional engineer, it is possible for an engineering technology graduate to become registered in Georgia and some other states. The requirements for registration as a professional engineer vary from state to state with some states not allowing engineering technology graduates to become registered. Students considering registration as a profes- sional engineer should contact Dr. Pravin K. Raut for further information.

The Department of Engineering Technology is a member of the following professional organizations:

The American Society for Engineering Education

DEPARTMENT OF MILITARY SCIENCE (ROTC) CAPTAIN JOSEPH JOHNSON, Head

Master Sergeant George McAdams

Angie Lewis, Secretary

General

The Department of Military Science is a Senior Division Reserve Officer Train- ing Corps (ROTC), Instructor Group, staffed by active army personnel. The Armstrong State department provides a curriculum available to Savannah State students that qualifies the college graduate for a commission as an officer in the United States Army, United States Army Reserve, or the United States Army National Guard. Qualifying for a commission added an extra dimension to the student's employment capability in that upon graduation from college, the stu- dent has either military or civilian employment options.

The course of study offered in military science is designed not only to prepare the student for service as a commissioned officer in the United States Army but also to provide knowledge and practical experience in leadership and manage- ment that will be useful in any facet of society. Male and female students are eligible for enrollment. Each student is provided with a working knowledge of the organization and functioning of the Department of Defense and the role of the U.S. Army in the national security and world affairs.

The course of study pursued by students during their freshman and sophomore years is the basic military science course and/or related skill activities. The course of study normally pursued by students during their junior and senior years is the advance military science course.

For selection and retention in the advanced course, a student must be phys- ically qualified, should have maintained above average military and academic standing, and must demonstrate a potential for further leadership development.

Graduates of the advanced course are commissioned Second Lieutenants in the United States Army Reserve in the branch of service most appropriate to their interests and academic achievements, consistent with the needs of the Army. Regardless of the branch selected, all officers will receive valuable ex- perience in management, logistics and administration. Graduates may be granted a delay in reporting for duty for graduate study if requested. A small number of outstanding students are designated Distinguished Military Gradu- ates and are offered commissions in the Regular Army each year.

Basic Military Service

Basic military science courses involve six quarters during the freshmen and sophomore years. The student learns leadership and management and acquires essential background knowledge of customs and traditions, weapons, map read- ing, tactics and survival. Equally important, these courses have the objective of developing the student's leadership, self-discipline, integrity and sense of re- sponsibility. 222

Advanced Military Science

Veterans entering the military science programs will receive appropriate placement credit for their active military service. Students who have completed military science courses in military preparatory schools or junior colleges may be given appropriate credit. Students with at least three years of high school ROTC may also be granted placement credit. Placement credit or six quarters of basic military science, or equivalent thereof, is a prerequisite to admission into the advanced program.

Placement

The general objective of this course of instruction is to produce junior officers who by education, training, attitude and inherent qualities are suitable for con- tinued development as officers in the Army. There are two avenues available for the student to be eligible for entry into the advanced program and obtain a commission as a second lieutenant:

(a) satisfactory completion of, or placement credit for, the basic program basic ROTC and meeting the entrance and retention requirements established by the Army.

(b) to be an active duty veteran or junior ROTC cadet graduate eligible for placement credit.

Alternate Programs for Admittance

Students with two years of coursework remaining, but who have not completed basic military science are eligible to be considered for selection into the advanced military science program. Those selected under the provisions of the two-year advanced program must satisfactorily complete a basic summer camp of six weeks duration prior to entering the advanced program. Students attending the basic camp at Fort Knox, Kentucky, are paid at active army rates and given a travel allowance from their home to camp and return. Attendance at Basic Camp is voluntary and incurs no military obligation until the student returns and decides to sign a contract to pursue a commission.

Participating Students and Aliens

Some students and aliens may participate in the Advanced Course classes provided they meet the requirements outlined in Army Regulations. They receive no subsistence allowance and may only participate in classroom instruction. For specific details on this program, see the Department Head before registering for a course.

Advanced Summer Camp

Students contracting to pursue the advanced courses are required to attend advanced summer camp, normally between their junior and senior academic years at Fort Riley, Kansas. Students attending this camp are paid at active army rates and given travel allowance from their home to camp and return. 223

Financial Assistance

All contracted advanced cadets are paid a subsistence allowance of $100 per month while enrolled in the advanced course.

Scholarship Program

Each year the U.S. Army awards one, two- and three-year scholarships to outstanding young men and women participating in the Army ROTC program who desire careers as Army officers. The Army pays tuition, fees, books and laboratory expenses incurred by the scholarship student. In addition, each stu- dent receives $100 per month for the academic year. Individuals desiring to compete for these scholarships should apply to the Military Science Department.

Army ROTC Uniforms, Books and Supplies

Students enrolling in the Army ROTC program will be issued U.S. Army uniforms, books and supplies by the Military Science Department. No fees or deposits of any kind will be required. Uniforms must be returned before com- missioning or upon disenrollment from the ROTC program.

(MIL) Courses

The basic course of six quarters duration consists of two hours of classroom work per week. In the classroom, the student acquires knowledge of military leadership weapons, tactics, basic military skills, and physical fitness. In field training exercises, potential for leadership is progressively developed.

The advanced course consists of three hours of classroom work and one hour of leadership laboratory per week. During the spring quarter prior to advanced camp the student will enroll in MIL 303 to prepare for attendance at Advance Camp. History 201 (American Military History) is normally taken the spring quarter of the senior year. The coursework during the advanced course empha- sizes techniques of management and leadership and the fundamentals and dy- namics of the military team. Field training exercises provide the student with applied leadership experiences.

Minor Concentration

The department offers a minor in Military Science. The program is designed to prepare the student for a commission in the United States Army and is offered to, but not required of, those students participating in the advanced course of Army ROTC instruction. Whatever the major, a Military Science minor will strengthen the student's management, leadership, and interpersonal commu- nication skills. The minor requires:

DEVELOPMENTAL STUDIES PROGRAM

GEORGE THOMAS, SR., Acting Director

Clara Elmore-Bain Beverly Johnson, Secretary Charlie Bryan Willie G. McLemore Michael Douglas Khani Morgan Louise L. Golden Karen Penick Mary Ann Goldwire Lawrence Simmons Timothy Goodwin Cynthia Stephens Joan Green Lancy Jen ADMISSION

Entering freshmen whose Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores are less than 750 and those above 750 with SAT verbal or SAT math less than 350 or whose ACT composite scores are less than 16 or above 16 and less than 16 on the English and 11 on the math must take the Collegiate Placement Examination (CPE). College-wide cut off scores on the aforementioned tests in conjunction with other standard and locally constructed instruments are utilized to deter- mine exemption from placement into the Developmental Studies courses. CPE cut off scores for exemption and exit effective Fall 1988 are: English - 75, Math - 75, Reading - 75. DEVELOPMENTAL STUDIES PROGRAM

The Developmental Studies Program is designed for entering students who have demonstrated marked deficiencies in English, Reading, and Mathematics.

A "Developmental Studies Student" is any student whose score on either portion of the Collegiate Placement Examination (CPE) was lower than the passing score given above. Such students must take all Developmental Studies courses (courses numbered 99 or below).

The philosophy of the Development Studies Program is that although there are slow learners and fast learners, when provided with favorable learning conditions, most students become very similar with regard to learning ability, rate of learning, and motivation for further learning. The Program supports and is committed to the contention that "high risk" students possess strengths that should be developed and weaknesses that can be remediated. In order to facilitate this growth and development, each of the three components of Savannah State's Program of Developmental Studies has created objectives designed to promote the overall mission of the Program and the College. They are: (1) to strengthen the reading skills of conditionally admitted students; (2) to strengthen the math- ematical skills of conditionally admitted students; and, (3) to strengthen oral and written communicative skills of conditionally admitted students. These ob- jectives are based on the desire of Development Studies' faculty and staff to support the students pursuit of academic excellence and life survival skills.

A student shall not be allowed more than four quarters of four attemps to complete deficiencies. A student who fails to successfully exit any one or more courses within the four quarters or four attemps limitation shall be excluded from Savannah State College and any other unit of the University System of 227

Georgia for one quarter. This exclusion does include summer quarter. A student who fails to complete all Developmental Studies requirements within one quarter of re-entry, after the first exclusion, shall be excluded for one year (four quarters).

A student may not accumulate more than 30 hours of degree credit before finishing his Developmental Studies requirements. Any student who does ac- cumulate 30 credit hours or more and who has not successfully completed the required Developmental Studies courses may enroll only in Developmental Studies courses until Developmental Studies requirements are successfully com- pleted.

Successful completion or exit from Developmental Studies will occur only after a student has successfully completed the required courses and met the minimum exit scores in each subject area and successfully passes a final writing sample.

No degree credit will be awarded for Developmental Studies course work. Institutional credit only will be awarded.

Retesting any Fourth quarter students who passes an exit level course and fails to pass the Collegiate Placement Examination (CPE) will be given one opportunity to retest at the end of that quarter. Any student who passes a Developmental Studies Course, but who fails the CPE by three points will be given one opportunity to retest at the end of that quarter.

The following grade standards will be adhered to by students, only in all class and lab assignments:

A = 91-100 B = 81- 90 C = 75- 80 D = 70- 74

Final Grades will be S, IP, F, W, V 097 LEVEL

S Student passed course, moved to next Developmental Studies level.

IP Indicates student showed insufficient progress for completion of the course. He must repeat the course.

F Student unsuccessfully completed four quarters, and will be dismissed from the program. 098 LEVEL

S Student met all requirements and has exited Developmental Studies.

IP Indicates student showed insufficient progress for completion of the course. He must repeat the course.

F Student unsuccessfully completed four quarters or four attempts, and will be dismissed from the program.

W As defined in Board Policy 304.

V May be used as defined in Board Policy 304, but only in those cases ap- proved under Procedure II-D. 228
